It’s edgy because k8s is clearly the best system we have and has a lot of notoriety. The article is clickbait at best.
The distributed state algorithms that underlying kubernetes are what makes it what it is. I see very little added to the discussion. I see a hacked together AWS system that will be subject to the laws of entropy.
- vajrabum 5y agoWhat's hacked together about using NLBs and EC2 instances with statically launched Docker instances on each EC2 instance driven by Terraform and Cloudformation? That's all pretty standard AWS stuff. I'd guess from having run that sort of infrastructure in the past they have less custom tooling than the average K8s shop. It's certainly easier to understand the failure modes. Plus this doesn't look like a heavy microservice environment. With a monolith or small number of services that aren't changing often with dedicated LBs and autoscale groups I'm guessing their environment is fairly easy to monitor and manage.
